*No class on Presidents' Day

*This class will occur upstairs in the Art Room

 

I registered for this class because I recently retired and wanted to rediscover my interest in drawing after many, many years.  I really liked Eli's presentation of our lesson every week and felt I learned a lot.  I'm eager to continue to move forward!

 

I wanted to learn a new skill and do a better job of drawing with my kids.  I was impressed with how much I learned in a very short period of time!
